Listing Process

The Euronext Growth listing process is nearly similar to that of the Euronext European Regulated Markets but can be quicker and more straightforward. Shares may be offered for sale to institutional investors, qualified investors and retail investors, or to certain classes of such investors, such as management, employees, 'friends and family' and customers.

There are three ways to be admitted to listing and trading on Euronext Growth:

A public offer – The traditional IPO, raising capital at the time of the listing with the publication of a prospectus. Retail investors may participate.

A private placement – A placement of shares prior to the request for admission to listing of new securities of at least €2.5 million made in the preceding year. The issuer is required to publish an information document. For institutional investors and qualified investors only.

A direct listing – Admission to trading for issuers already admitted to trading on an eligible market, with no capital raised. The issuer is required to publish an information document.

The listing sponsor chosen to advise a company on its listing will need to consider whether the company meets all applicable criteria for listing. It will do this in consultation with the company and its legal advisers and auditors. The issuer shall have a listing sponsor on a permanent basis after the admission.

The listing sponsor is usually an investment bank, but can also be an advisory firm, such as an accountant or corporate finance boutique, which will work alongside an investment bank for the capital raising (if any).

Prior to any listing, there will be a certain amount of legal ‘housekeeping' and preparation to be undertaken in order to ensure suitability for listing, compliance by the company with relevant legal requirements and that existing and future investor needs are met.
